What our analysis found

Bulk Image Downloader, used by 60,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can inject scripts into pages. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in February 2024.

Analyst notes

The extension acts as a companion for the Windows desktop application 'Bulk Image Downloader'. It uses nativeMessaging to send page metadata (URL, title, cookies, HTML source) to the local desktop app upon user-triggered actions. No remote network requests, obfuscation, or data exfiltration are present. All collected data stays on the local machine. The permissions are consistent with the extension's stated purpose. The manifest mismatch (bundled v2 vs. published v3 with extra permissions) is noted but does not indicate malicious intent.
